I agree certain things like overalls, knee high socks, milkshakes and pillow fights should never have an age limit. They look wonderful on you- I've been looking for the right engineer pair for years.. one day the thrifting faeries will bring them to me- I'm convinced!

I find I am oft to ask myself "self haven't we come to an age in which fashion norms just doesn't matter anymore as long as we like how we look?" And self always answers with a resounding "YES" "We" think your overalls are simply smashing and very peachy!Cheers!

overalls R-O-C-K!!! I don't care what ANYONE says....they are fabulous!!! And you thrifted them....Shut Up!! Who are the made by? They...are...fantastic. Overalls are like a string of pearls...ageless. They have and always will be "it." Rock on sister!

I *love* your new overalls (I call them dungarees - is this a British vs American thing?)

I'm very inspired to get my own pair. I used to have a fabulous pair of PATCHWORK dungaees when I was about 14 but I sent them to the charity shop when I outgrew them. May have to hunt down a denim pair, but I shall ignore the advice you were given about not wearing them after 30 as that's not too far in the future for me!

Love your blog! Found you through facile Cecile who linked to us both in the same post. I see that you have linked to our shop - Loop. Did you know that we have started a blog? loopknitlounge.com Wish you could come to our new shop opening!Juju at Loop

You look adorable in your overalls and love the ruffly pink sweater too!Being more ancient than you, I tend to find myself humming "Our House" while wearing mine ;-), but do dearly love 'Come on Eileen' as well and have it in my itunes 80's mix -- love love 80's music -- so happy!

yay! i love them on you!- and at 38 years old i want mine back too! i had some super soft denim ones and some khaki ones too. i wore them almost every day, but was somehow also persuaded that they were no longer cool. the great thing about getting older is that now i just don't care and maybe it could be my quirk- that i'm still wearing overalls as a grandma- the most comfy of all! you look totally cool to me- love it with the pink jumper! :)

L-O-V-E LOVE the overalls! I need to go find a pair. I regret giving mine away so very long ago. I'm like you - I was happy when I could wear my clogs and overalls! Jamie V in MThttp://rem-nants.blogspot.comamzanioli@yahoo.com

It is time to let go of rules, which are simply for people with no imagination, and wear what makes you feel happy all the way down to your toes! I have a pair of unbleached off-white denim ones that I have been meaning to put thrifted patches and scraps on. NOW I am going to do it and have so much fun along the way! Thanks for inspiring me. I am 52 and don't care whether I "should" wear them -- of course I should because my heart will sing in them!!! Claudia (aka Daisy Fleabane)

Hello dear TifAh, how happy am I to see your dungarees?I was the biggest, nay the BIGGEST Dexy's fan back in my teenage days and I found myself the scruffiest pair of dungarees at a jumble sale. They were men's dungarees, I hasten to add! And I wore those dungarees every day to sixth form, and everywhere else, and was no doubt the most dishevelled skinny teenager on the streets of Bath. But I wore my dungarees and daps with pride and with the words of Kevin always in my mind... such happy days they were too. In fact, I now have to go find my Dexy's CD and pop it on to listen along....Too Rye Aye !Denise x
